I love chip beads! They’re an automatic “screwup fixer”! Any beading that looks a little wonky-throw some chip beads in there to fill it in or even to contrast it-it makes it look beautiful! I also love to make the various tree pendants using only chips...I make my own frame and tree, then use the chips to signify whatever a person may want...(4 seasons, family birthstones, etc). Then, of course, I make any other wire additions (moon, swing, flower, etc), check again that all wire ends are secure, cut, hidden, not poking, polish it all up, & that’s that! I am going to “borrow” your idea of using the concave metal [rose] findings back to back & attaching with a jump ring, if you don’t mind! Now THAT might be cool to back with chip beads or even seed beads! 🤔 I wonder...

You do beautiful work. I ♥️♥️♥️the black brick stitch bracelet. I have 11 14-16” strands of 2-2.5 faceted black spinel I have no clue what to do with. I’m very much a beginner & have sooo many supplies with no idea what to do with. I have 4 strands of matte rough gemstone beads I also have creative block with. Thank you for your video 🤩
@ORCHIDandOPAL

Thanks, Roberta! I love using the tiny faceted gemstone beads like that in place of similar sized fire polish beads sometimes. They also look great on fringe earrings due to the bit of sparkle. I hope this helps! :)

Oh My Gosh Gina, ALL these pieces are sooo beautiful, you're amazing! I mean WOW! I love all the different ways in which you used the gemstone chip beads. I've always loved the nice, big chips that are available, but I've never known what to do with the small ones. But you've given me a ton of ideas with this video. I have to say that the Rose Quartz Bracelet with the small, matching, pale pink Czech glass flower beads is just SO STUNNING AND ELEGANT! That was the perfect way to include something different, but subtle, to the rose quartz. I'm in awe,I really am. Lots of love from Amanda in Australia xoxoxoxox

These pieces are gorgeous. I have had gemstone chips in my stash for a long time and had no idea what to do with them, so this video is definitely inspiring. I would love to see a tutorial on how you made the multi strand pieces using the brick stitch. I am curious to see how you did that. I know that I have told you this several times, but it truly does make my day much brighter when that bell rings on my phone telling me that you have posted a new video. Awesome job as usual.

I knew I wasn't the only one who struggled with ideas for using the gemstone chips in a way that elevated their look. It was a great exercise for me, and I am so glad it is helpful to so many others as well. More tutorials added to my list, and coming as soon as I can crank them out! ;-) 💜 Thanks again!

I have lots of them and am psyched to try these once you do those tutorials!

Hey there! I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed the ideas and different ways to use these challenging chips!

They really can be fun and beautiful! I will crank out more tutorials soon. Thanks for watching! 💜

I'm not trying to be picky or take anybody's business away from anybody but if you are looking for gemstone chips you're better off going to Fire Mountain Gems you can get strands of Chips gemstone chips from anywhere from $0.50 when they're on sale to a $1.00 and a lot of times you can get a 36 inch strand I know I have just saying guys I looked these up and they were I'd say expensive for has little as you get.✌
@ORCHIDandOPAL
@ORCHIDandOPAL 5 лет назад
Hi Coleen! Thanks for sharing the info on Fire Mountain; I see that their ordinary prices are at least $3-$4 per strand, so I guess if you can catch a sale that would def be a great deal. Also, it seems like they always charge for shipping, which kills a lot of deals for me over there, so curious to know if they ever run free shipping. I appreciate you watching! 💜

Thankyou Gina! Terrific ideas! I have made some single strand chip bracelets (on wire) mixing chips with balls. These look lovely and organic and you only need to string 4 to 5 chips together at a time (they fit together easily this way) as they are then seperated by a ball bead. Crystal Quartz balls look great to seperate pastel coloured chips. You can also use metal beads to seperate the chips.

I don't know if you'll see this but I thought I'd found a pretty good deal on a kit like this until I took a look at the Amazon link for the chip beads and it's a better deal plus the stones are 7mm-8mm instead of starting at 5mm-8mm. I don't even know how they put a hole in the ones that are 3mm-5mm so hopefully I'll have a set closer in size thanks to you. Plus the set comes with aquamarine which is my mom's and my birthstone so hopefully I'll be able to learn how to make something simple by the time March gets here. Thanks again!!!! You're stuff is beautiful!!!

Plus the one I was going to get only had 8 colors and I'm pretty sure the clearer colors were fake and this company seems to have a great reputation to I'm hoping they are real like they seem to be. I know it's an oddball favorite but I am absolutely in love with fluorite (sp?)!!!! Polished or rough, it has so many variations in color its amazing!!!!! Thank you for taking the time to share your talent and knowledge!!!

Love the idea of adding oddball "challenge" beads to a memory wire bead soup. I have some I wanted for earrings, but was at a loss to use elsewise. Also love the rose quartz/flower bead idea---so lovely! Also like how you used different-sized beads in the brick stitch ends of the peach multi-strand bracelet---makes it look pleasingly organic, instead of the rigid blockiness usually seen with delicas. (By the way, I'm typing-enabled again! :-) )

I get so intimidated by projects with tons of headpin dangles as my wirework pretty much sucks ☹️ I am SO glad I found your channel Gina, you are so talented and creative I love all your work.

Wow, Gina, you really rocked the chips! All of your pieces are beautiful and I love them all, especially the rose quartz bracelet and the aquamarine and leather necklace. I've always shied away from using chips but I have 1 strand of turquoise chips that a friend gave me years ago and they've been collecting dust ever since. I'd played with them a few times but I hadn't come up with a design that made me happy so I put them back in my stash to collect more dust. Thanks to you sharing this video I'm inspired to rescue that one lonely strand...and introduce it to leather ;)
